Ecology of Dynamena crisioides

Main Ref.	Migotto, A.E., A.C. Marques, A.C. Morandini and F.L. da Silveira, 2002
Remarks	Colonial (Ref. 19). Known from mangroves (Ref. 86642, 86643), on roots of Rhizophora sp. (Ref. 86642), tidal inlets, exposed areas of bays, including any ledges at their entrance, sounds and caves (Refs. 86643). Also found in Carrie Bow Cay, Belize, in mangrove islands on mangrove roots at depths of 0 to 0.5 m (Ref/ 87156). Also on hard substrate (Ref. 116013). As with other hydroids, this species exhibits a pelagic medusoid stage (Ref. 87156).
